SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 6, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Foresite Software Systems Inc. is pleased to announce that it will be co-hosting an industry consortium event with GE Power on the 7^th November 2012 in Dallas, Texas.  The conference will be dedicated to helping members of the Power and Electronics industry understand and comply with pressing product stewardship regulations.  This invitation only event will provide industry leaders with the opportunity to openly discuss the upcoming challenges facing the sector in 2013.  Globalization has driven many governments to adopt increasingly complex product-centric legislation requiring supply chain transparency disclosure.

2013 is forecasted to be a watershed year for environmental compliance, as the obligations of the EU RoHS Recast, EU REACH Regulation and the US SEC Conflict Minerals Disclosure Obligations take effect. Consequently, the ability to successfully navigate complex global reporting requirements has become vital for the Power and Electronics industry.  Companies need help to identify global compliance needs, gather due diligence documentation, and generate properly formatted reports to respond to the diverse needs of customers, industry consortiums, and regulatory bodies.  Foresite's combination of world class software, data collection, and professional services uniquely position Foresite in the market as the most comprehensive and competent one-stop shop for managing regulatory compliance needs.

Lance Allison, CEO of Foresite, stated, "By providing a solution for every aspect of compliance, from identification to reporting, Foresite is the only company positioned to provide a complete suite of services and solutions to our customers and their affiliated suppliers.  This has become increasingly important as compliance has transitioned from a largely engineering function to a C-Suite imperative.  The associated need for a trustworthy competent compliance partner has markedly increased."
